Damn, they banned me from the slipknot forum
Seriously, why do people always make fun of people who made it, or even worse: role models... Is it jealousy? I canceled my way to the top because its much cooler beiing a nobody than ruling the worldwide scene and become the most hated dj. It seems like most of us spend two hours every week of their private time to listen to asot, and then posting how bad it was. So the big question is: Why do they listen? |

it's unfair to say that someone sucks as a producer just because he doesn't do his mixdowns and masterings by himself.
Just as C-quence said, as a DJ you don't have very much time to learn theese things. Of course there's exceptions to this, Armin is a very good example of this.
What people need to understand is that most of the times the producers ain't some kind of multimachine that can do everything by themselves.
Ohh and btw. If people had others do the mixdowns for them we would probably see lots of more tracks wich would be better mixed thanks to the objectivity it would bring. (This is one of the reasons why it works like this in bigger genres like pop, you simply need the best possible mixdown so you have the best of the best when it's released) |

well this shows that many of you have no idea what mastering is (the ones that are complaining about him not doing it)
and plus
whats the big deal if someone else does the mastering..he still produces the whole song
i dont care about tiesto at all..but i just found this pretty stupid that people started arguing about someone else doing his mastering? |

well I can understand why people think that it's lame not to do the mastering by yourself because this new homeproduction trend has lead to people having to do stuff like this by themselves because you simply can't afford to hire a pro ME.
This image is totally wrong when you apply it to artists signed to a label. Most of the times there's an ME connected somehow to the label that can do the work for you and sometimes the artists has someone they prefer to use.
I actually do some mastering for a few friends that either don't have time or the interest to learn it themselves so that kind of proves how it works :) |

good for him.
as for the rest of the arguments in this thread, who cares. it's always the same old tired arguments. if any of you were in his shoes, you'd understand why he does some of the things he does. but alas, you are not. |

You've hit the nail right on the head with that one. I don't know the difference between composing, sound design, producing and mastering. I'm so naive and ignorant in relation to understanding their definitions. Perhaps you could explain which one of those catagories "top mixdown" falls under, unless it's not one of your strong points, and your top mixdown engineer just happens to be lurking around these boards and would care to explain it for me.

ROFL!
Mastering means preparing a track for pressing on vinyl or cd.
I've heard some tracks you all know when they were being produced, and there's almost no difference before and after the mastering proces.

I'm sure that anybody in the "music industry" reading your crappy post would feel the same way. I'll tell you what you should do tho: Pull an Airbase and change genres whenever someone vaguely states they have less respect for a producer over an internet message board.

:D
You don't even know what kind of music I make, so don't talk about something you don't know!

Religious? Whahahaha :)
I like some of his productions, some not. And I was only talking about the mastering proces. I'm sure he knows where the mixdown button is in Cubase, and that's the point. If you don't know what the difference is between mastering and making a mixdown, why should you critisize about someone like Tiesto, who makes music?
I think it's all about jealousy, and sometimes I'm sick of it.
But most of the times, it makes me smile :)
No personal offence, but know what you talk about ;) |
